Was the Dallas Cowboys nine player 2017 draft class a bust?

The Dallas Cowboys have seven selections in the upcoming NFL draft. They hold all their original picks except for their sixth-round selection traded to Miami for defensive end Robert Quinn but received a fifth-round compensatory pick for losing wide receiver Cole Beasley.

The temptation will be to analyze and grade each selection immediately. Resist that temptation.

Case in point, the Cowboys received some glowing grades for their 2017 NFL draft. Going into the draft, the experts at NFL.com felt the Cowboys needed to find an edge rusher, safety, corner, and tight end to replace an aging Jason Witten.
